[PATCH] f2fs: Add mutex to prevent gc task from being accessed before initialization
Posted by Edward Adam Davis 1 month, 1 week ago
syzbot report null-ptr-deref Write in f2fs_stop_gc_thread, because 
shutdown and remount can cause multi-path entry into f2fs_stop_gc_thread,
resulting in incorrect access to f2fs_gc_task before it is properly
initialized.
